Fantastic tour! We had a great Captain and crew. Our Captain was very good at telling us about the area and explaining the progression of the glacier's. We were able to see so many animals including whales, porpoise, bear, otter, puffin and gulls. The Captain took us up around an iceberg and close to the face of a glacier so that we could see it calving. The crew was kind and helpful, even offering barf bags and ginger ale to those with queasy stomachs. I spent most of my time inside the cabin which had a great view of everything around me. Hubby was outside mostly and loving the experience. Dinner was delicious! Salmon (for me) Beef (for hubby) or Curry as a vegetarian option. Our meals were both perfectly cooked and so yummy! This is definitely a tour worth taking.
Exceeds all expectations. One of the best experiences of my life. Crew and staff are kind and professional. Food is good, but that’s not the real reason you are on the tour. Motion sickness can be a minor thing. Bring meds if you are prone to it. The sights, fjords, glaciers, and wildlife are stunning!!
This was hands down one of the best experiences of our lives! We saw humpback whales group feeding and our amazing captain took us up close and personal to a tide water glacier and you could hear the ice breaking! So cool.
Thank you for your incredible review! We're thrilled this was one of the best experiences of your lives. Seeing humpback whales feeding and experiencing the power of a tidewater glacier up close is truly unforgettable. We appreciate you joining us and hope to welcome you back for another amazing adventure!

Super experience for the whole family. A highlight of our trip to Alaska. Ship was great quality with a comfortable ride. Saw tons of wildlife - fin whales, humpback whales, tufted puffins, horned puffins, stellar sea lions, and Dall porpoise! Three course dinner was also very delicious!

Beautiful scenery, friendly staff. We did the dinner cruise to kenai Fjords. There was a review about the food being so bad they wouldn't feed it to their dog. Well, I kind of agree with them. I wouldn't feed it to my dog, as I would eat it myself! The food was great! We saw so much wild life. The captain maneuvers the ship into some tight locations so you can really see things up close. Glaciers, rock formations, mountains, whales, wild life. It was a very pleasant experience.
Thank you for the fantastic review! We're so glad you enjoyed the scenery, wildlife, and the captain's ability to get you up close to Alaska's incredible landscapes. We're also happy to hear you enjoyed the dinner. We appreciate you choosing Kenai Fjords Tours and hope to see you again.

Good experience - original date was cancelled due to bad weather but easily rebooked for next day. Slight hiccup with boat having mechanical issue & have been told that we will be receiving 50% refund. Wonderful weather & great crew. Would recommend it to anyone.
Thank you for your review! We're glad we were able to get you rebooked quickly and that you still had a wonderful day on the water with our crew. We appreciate your patience with the mechanical issue and hope to welcome you aboard again in the future!
